The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Before going to Zerg Planet, Xiao Lou placed the entrance of Taohuayuan in the cockpit of the mecha spirit fox. Now that everyone walks out of Taohuayuan, the familiar console is in sight. The buttons all glow a soft blue light.

Xiao Lou walked to the console.

From the porthole, it can be seen that the Zerg planet under the feet, the area where the laboratory was established suddenly exploded.

Crimson flames soared into the sky, heat waves tumbling layer upon layer, the rumbling sound was deafening, the surrounding spar was shaken by the explosion shock wave and splashed everywhere, the red spar fragments bloomed like the most gorgeous fireworks in the sky——

Lu Jiuchuan's "Suzaku Skyfire" was indeed terrifying, and the flames spewed out completely burned down the replicator's laboratory.At this time, the entire Zerg underground cave had collapsed, and the Zerg queen who had just arrived let out an angry roar. Those Zerg who had evolved and grown wings heard the queen's call, turned their heads in unison, and moved towards the location where the fox was. Pounce!

The densely packed Zerg gathered around the queen like a large dark cloud.

They surrounded Linghu at an extremely fast speed, Xiao Lou quickly pressed the start button: "Linghu, retreat quickly!"

After receiving the instruction, the mecha immediately spread its wings, soared into the sky, and flew over the heads of the insect swarm in a thrilling manner, breaking through the atmosphere like an arrow leaving the string, and flying into the vast cosmic starry sky——

The swarm desperately chased after them, but their flying speed was not as fast as the S-class smart mechs.Only ten seconds later, Linghu broke through the thick black clouds and left the Zerg planet, leaving the chasing swarm far behind.

Xiao Lou breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Linghu, "Leave the Hilt no-man's land as soon as possible."

Linghu said: "Understood, master."

Hearing this strange young voice, Chu Huaying couldn't help wondering: "Who is this mecha?"

Xiao Lou explained: "Your Majesty left the S-class mecha for me and Hanjiang. The starship Dark Night almost crashed before. Thanks to this mecha, we were able to survive."

Although Xiao Lou only mentioned the matter of the An Ye starship, but he could imagine the danger at that time, Chu Huaying looked at everyone and said in a low voice: "Sorry, I was taken away by Uncle Qin at that time, so I didn't have time to contact you. Could it be that Uncle Qin used replicants to lure you to board the starship, and then secretly destroyed the starship, wanting to bury you in the universe?"

Xiao Loudao: "Yes, Uncle Qin destroyed the balance system of the Starship Dark Night, drained all of the starship's energy, and set the clock seat where cosmic sandstorms frequently occur as the navigation end point. Fortunately, there is no danger, we Relying on this mech to avoid the sandstorm."

A trace of guilt flashed across Chu Huaying's face.

Lu Jiuchuan came over and patted Chu Huaying on the shoulder, saying: "You can't blame you for this incident. We were not careful enough. We didn't check the authenticity of that Chu Huaying, so we sent it directly to the starship Dark Night. And , Uncle Qin, the hunter, has been lurking by your side, something was wrong when he was interrogated, we should have found out..."

Xiao Louwen said: "It's over, don't blame yourself. This time is also a lesson learned, and we have to be more cautious in the future." He paused, then turned to look at Yu Hanjiang, "What Uncle Qin said just now, do you feel Don't you find it strange?"

--die?Do you think there will be hunters afraid of death?

Uncle Qin's crazy laughter echoed in his ears before he died. Yu Hanjiang rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "You mean that hunters are not afraid of death, maybe it's different from what we speculated?"

Xiao Lou nodded: "I previously speculated that the reason why hunters are not afraid of death is that if they fail to complete the task, it may be more painful than death. Death is a relief to them, so they are not afraid of death."

Ye Qi scratched his hair in doubt: "Isn't this speculation reasonable? It is human instinct to live, but they would rather die than tell any secrets about the hunter organization. Obviously, the result of leaking the secrets will be worse than death." more uncomfortable?"

"I thought so too at first, but when Uncle Qin died just now, he didn't show despair. He laughed wildly. Instead, he seemed to have completed some mission and died happily." Xiao Lou thoughtfully He took out the contract book, looked at the unused 【Team Resurrection Card】 on the book, and said softly, "Can the hunter...can be resurrected?"

When everyone heard this, the expressions on their faces froze at the same time.

Ye Qi's eyes widened in disbelief: "No way?! If the hunters can be resurrected, it would be too unfair to us! If we fail the mission, we will be eliminated, and if they fail the mission, they can start over again." ?"

Xiao Lou put away the contract and looked at everyone: "Our mission failure doesn't mean we are eliminated directly, there is also the nightmare chamber."

Ye Qi was stunned—he had experienced the nightmare secret room of the "financial crisis" in Spades 3 before, and struggled to survive by eating bark and weeds. It was also that secret room that left him with a deep fear of hunger, and woke up every day. The first thing I want to do is fill my stomach.

Lu Jiuchuan, Tang Ci, and Chu Huaying have all experienced Plum Blossom J's nightmare chamber. Brother Jiu left scars on his face, and Tang Ci even lost his legs... When the word "nightmare chamber" was mentioned, several people's expressions were very strange. ugly.

Xiao Lou said softly: "The challenger fails the mission, and there is another chance to escape from the nightmare chamber; after the hunter dies, there may be another chance, the difficulty is less than the nightmare chamber, so they are not afraid of death? If so If so, does it make sense?"

Yu Hanjiang was silent for a moment, and said: "Where did the hunters come from, and what will happen after death, we have no way to confirm these information... unless we also become hunters."

Lu Jiuchuan raised his eyebrows: "Don't be, we must never become hunters."

There was a sudden silence in the cockpit.

Xiao Lou took the initiative to change the topic to ease the atmosphere: "Hey, let's think about what to do after going to Capital Star. There are two princes, No. The general and Lin Yan are also confirmed to be replicas, how should these people be dealt with?"

Chu Huaying said: "We can't kill them all, can we?"

Lu Jiuchuan shook his head and denied this approach: "They have lived in the capital for 20 years and have already developed self-awareness, unlike those unconscious replicas in the laboratory. If you simply kill them, you can pass the level , this secret room is meaningless, with your ability Huaying, sneaking in with an invisibility cloak, killing a few people is not easy?"

Chu Huaying shrugged: "Then what do you say?"

Lu Jiuchuan didn't know too well, he just felt that the way to clear the level was not as simple as killing the clones.He had no choice but to look at Xiao Lou, and asked with a smile, "What does Professor Xiao think?"

Xiao Lou calmly analyzed: "The theme of the secret room this time is the 'Noah's Ark Project to Copy Human Beings'. We have investigated all the information related to the plan so far, found out all the participants, and found the project located in the deep sea. Mermaid and Zerg underground duplicant labs."

"On the mermaid side, we have already destroyed the laboratory and let Liu Qiao, the mermaid princess, succeed me. On the side of the empire, what we should do next is to destroy all the data related to the experiment, and exclude the two duplicating princes and the duplicating princes. Under the influence of General Lin, I, the legitimate prince, will inherit the throne, do you think this idea is right?"

When everyone heard this, they all nodded and agreed with Xiao Lou's opinion.

Yu Hanjiang said: "The difficulty is that the duplicating prince on the 2nd already has self-awareness and believes that he is the real prince. General Lin has been a replica for more than 20 years, and he has long been able to confuse the fake with the real one. It's brother Jiu's immediate superior, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region. Even if the identities of these people are exposed, few people will believe us."

Xiao Lou nodded and said: "That's right. The No. 2 clone in the palace attended the engagement banquet and the 25th birthday banquet, made public appearances, and shook hands with many officials. But I, the genuine prince, did not attend the engagement banquet." For wedding banquets and birthday banquets, if His Majesty wants No. 2 to be the real version, how can I prove my innocence?"

In the situation that the person and the clone are exactly the same, it is difficult for others to tell who is real and who is fake. At this time, His Majesty can decide Xiao Lou's life and death with one word - he said Xiao Lou is fake, who dares to refute?

The only one who can prove that Xiao Lou is the real prince is his sister, Princess Xiaorou.

Yu Hanjiang said: "I remember that when you left the Azure Planet, Xiao Rou once told you that if one day you need her to prove that you are the real prince, she would be willing to help. Although her whereabouts were covered by Prince Herman Watching, but she is very smart, and there is a doctor Edwin who has been helping her, maybe she can find an excuse to leave the palace?"

Xiao Lou's eyes lit up, and he suddenly said: "If I remember correctly, His Royal Highness and Lin Yan have been engaged for many years, right? Their biological age is now 25 years old. If the prince wants to formally participate in politics, it is a good choice to get married first."

Yu Hanjiang was startled: "You mean, the copying prince and copying Lin Yan are likely to get married in the near future?"

Xiao Loudao: "Judging from the reactions of Qu Wanyue and Long Sen, His Majesty did not send someone to find me after we left the palace, but directly let the No. 2 clone live in the double uterus, and frequently met Lin Yan to cultivate Feelings, this is obviously to arrange for No. 2 to replace me. Next, isn't it logical for No. 2 to marry Lin Yan?"

Ye Qi couldn't help but said: "Once they get married, it will be even more difficult to tell! The prince is fake, and the princess is also fake, and Xiao Lou, who has never seen the prince and concubine, is the real one. Don't believe it?"

Xiao Loudao: "So we have to hurry up. The biggest hope now is Zhang Shaohua who is still alive. She has been pretending to be crazy for so many years, so she must have her own ideas. She is an insider of the Noah's Ark project and can prove that her husband General Lin and his daughter Lin Yan are all replicants."

Shao Qingge interjected: "Qu Wanyue hasn't contacted me in the past two days, why don't you contact me now and ask her about the situation of Professor Zhang?"

Xiao Lou nodded: "Send her a message, if it's convenient for her, ask her to call back."

It was already two o'clock in the morning, and Shao Qingge sent a message to Qu Wanyue according to Xiao Lou's intention. Unexpectedly, Qu Wanyue was still awake, and quickly replied to the message and asked for a call.

Shao Qingge connected the connection.

In the video, Qu Wanyue was in her bedroom at home, not wearing pajamas, but wearing sportswear for easy movement. When she saw her teammates, she immediately said anxiously: "Professor Xiao, where are you? You have to come back as soon as possible!" Your Majesty is going to hold a secret wedding ceremony for His Highness the Prince and Miss Lin on the 1st of next month."

Everyone: "..."

Professor Xiao is really a divine prophecy, and he guessed it right.

Xiao Loudao: "We are on our way back, how about Zhang Shaohua?"

Qu Wanyue said: "She is still the same, with dull eyes every day, sitting in a wheelchair and basking in the sun. I just came back from her, and I also learned about the official marriage between His Highness and his fiancée from Lin Yan. She is going home today Afterwards, she happily shared the good news with her mother, but Zhang Shaohua also remained expressionless when she heard the news."

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang: "On the 1st of next month, we only have 3 days left."

Yu Hanjiang's expression was very heavy: "Let the replica Xiao Lou marry the replica Lin Yan, then announce the news that His Royal Highness has married, and bring the prince to attend various meetings in a fair manner, this replica can completely replace you. He His wife, Lin Yan, and father-in-law, General Lin Zecheng, are all on his side, and you have no chance of winning."

Xiao Lou smiled wryly and said, "Your Majesty, is this trying to make me give up automatically and stop appearing in front of him? He has already selected No. 2 as the best successor raised by the Gu-raising plan?"

"There is also No. 3 who has always been very obedient..." Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou and said in a low voice: "We have to hurry up. On the one hand, we need to contact your sister to prove your identity; on the other hand, we have to say Move Zhang Shaohua, let her testify, and end this crazy plan."

He paused, his eyes softened: "You are the only prince, no one can replace you."

Xiao Lou nodded at him, turned to look at Qu Wanyue and said, "Teacher Qu, please keep an eye on the movements of Nervous Shaohua, we will reach Capital Star soon, and you will directly open the peach blossom garden to pull us there."

Qu Wanyue said bluntly, "Okay, I'll wait for your news."

After Xiao Lou cut off the communication, he turned around and came to the console, and set the navigation destination as the blue planet: "We have to go back and bring my sister, the key witness."

The Mecha Fox turned 180 degrees in front and flew towards the blue planet.

***

An hour later, the mecha arrived near the blue planet.

Only Shao Qingge and Ye Qi could pass the security check of the space station. They pretended to miss the last passenger spaceship and returned to the blue planet from the space station.

Shao Qingge directly bought a suspension car and drove to the palace. Within 10 kilometers from the palace, he pressed the bump on the voice headset and whispered to Xiao Ju: "Princess, I am Shao Qingge, Xiaolou's friend."

When Xiao Rou heard this, she was slightly taken aback: "Mr. Shao? What's the matter?"

Shao Qingge said: "Your Majesty is planning to marry the copied Xiao Lou and Lin Yan to officially replace your younger brother. Now only you can prove that he is the real prince, so Xiao Lou asks me to invite you to the Empire to participate in this A wedding."

Xiao Rou seemed a little embarrassed: "Participating in the wedding, this..."

Shao Qingge said: "Or, if you escape from the palace now, we will take you away?"

Xiao Rou was silent for a moment, then pressed the earphone and said softly: "I see. Don't worry, I will find a way to return to the empire. As an older sister, I should have attended my younger brother's wedding. You tell Xiao Lou that he must protect himself, and wait I come back."

Shao Qingge said: "Thank you princess."

When the two returned to the cockpit of Linghu, Xiao Lou was anxiously waiting for the result. Hearing Shao Qingge's report, Xiao Lou finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Since my sister said so, there must be a way to go back. Let's go back to the empire first to get Zhang's job done." Let's talk about Shaohua."

Ye Qi worried: "But what if Princess Xiaorou can't go back?"

Xiao Loudao: "It doesn't matter who is true and who is false. Everyone will support which prince your majesty says is true. Therefore, the princess's testimony is just icing on the cake, and it cannot play a key role."

When he said this, he suddenly asked a question: "What if His Majesty also has a replicant?"

The teammates were dumbfounded when they heard this.

His Majesty?

Xiao Loudao: "Your Majesty is worried about bearing the pain of bereavement, worrying that no one will inherit the throne, and copying hundreds of princes to raise Gu, will he be so stupid as not to leave a way out for himself? He must have taken his own cells to do it." Duplicants, when they get older and their organs don’t work well, they can be replaced with new ones at any time. Isn’t this the original intention of his Noah’s Ark project?”

Teammates: "..."

Xiao Lou's words also made sense. His Majesty was worried that his son would die, so wouldn't he be worried that he would be assassinated?He helped his son to be a copy, and there was no reason not to make a data backup for himself.

Ye Qi's eyes lit up: "That is to say, only when we find His Majesty's clone, can we truly grasp his fate?! We can talk about terminating the clone program after cutting off his escape route?"

Xiao Lou nodded solemnly: "That's right, Mermaids and Zergs all have replicator labs—and at the beginning of the story, we haven't found the replicator lab of the Luoke Empire."
